Essential Full-Length Releases
![]() CRX - New Skin At some point over the past ten years, every member of The Strokes had released a record as a solo artist or with another band, except for Nick Valensi. He spent much of that time, when not with The Strokes, providing guitar for other artists, including Regina Spektor, Sia, and Devendra Banhart. He formed this new band three years ago, and this is their debut album. Watch: "Ways to Fake It" Listen: "Broken Bones" |
![]() Honeyblood - Babes Never Die Honeyblood is a Glaswegian duo currently made up of Stina Marie Tweedale and Cat Myers. Tweedale formed the band in 2012 with Shona McVicar, both transitioning from other bands. The lo-fi band released their eponymous debut album in 2014. McVicar departed not long after, at which point Myers came on board. Their follow-up was recorded with producer James Dring (Jamie T, Gorillaz) in London.

![]() Tove Lo - Lady Wood This Swedish singer had a breakout year in 2014 with her debut album, Queen of the Clouds, which hit 14 on the Billboard Hot 100. She's hardly been quiet in the two years following the release of the record; she released multiple singles from the debut record, recorded songs for film soundtracks, featured on songs for other artists, and wrote songs for other artists like Ellie Goulding, Hilary Duff, and MS MR. Her sophomore album is intended as the first part of the double album, with the second expected next year. Watch: "Cool Girl" Listen: "True Disaster" |
